Horage Lensman 1vsPhoibos Voyager

The Horage Lensman 1 is praised for its in-house K-TOU tourbillon movement, grade 5 titanium case, and 100-meter water resistance. Reviewers highlight its value at CHF 8,890, featuring a blacked-out movement with silicon parts and chronometer-level accuracy of -4/+6 seconds per day. The 10.3mm thin titanium case, inspired by camera design, houses a black dial with applied indices and Super-LumiNova for legibility, and the movement offers a 120-hour power reserve. One reviewer noted the rhodium-plated hands disrupt the blackened aesthetic. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the Horage Lensman 1 highly for its in-house tourbillon movement and value proposition.

The Phoibos Voyager is noted for its attractive MOP dial that plays with light and good overall finishing, along with a fun octopus logo. However, the red-on-red date wheel is illegible and may be misaligned. One owner flags the 13.5mm thick case, while comfortable at 39mm, as prone to striking objects. Overall, owners appreciate the dial's visual appeal and finishing, despite legibility issues with the date wheel.
